Undercover buys lead to drug arrests in Jasper Co

A months-long undercover investigation in Jasper County has ended in multiple drug arrests, according to Ralph Nichols, Jasper County Sheriff's Chief Deputy.

After making multiple undercover buys, deputies early Wednesday morning arrested five people from homes in Buna and Mount Union. Deputies confiscated about 100 grams of crack cocaine, a half pound of marijuana, a pistol, shotgun and $2,000 in cash.

All of the arrests were made without incident, Nichols said.

The names of the suspects will not be released until they are formally charged and arraigned.
